Bet was ecstatic to hear this and eagerly pressed her down again, holding her chin with his fingers


    and sweetly coaxing. “Darling, you’re so good to me. I will definitely reward you well tonight.”


    So, a couple who had waited for 20 years indulged in thest heat of their bodies without any scruples


    tonight.


    On the other side, Emmanuel’s family was holding a funeral for Ryder today.


    N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.


    There was aw in Onza that said that the bodies of people who died in Onza couldn’t be taken out of


    the city. They could only hold Ryder’s funeral in Onza and bring the ashes back to Hero’s Vige for


    burial.


    Since the Lowe family didn’t have many rtives in Onza, the funeral today would be rtively


    deserted.


    Tia had been kneeling in front of the memorial tablet with Tommy in her arms.


    Tommy cried quite a lot, while Tia wore a sad expression, remaining silent without shedding tears.


    Mackenzie and Beatrix also came. Seeing Tia leave the memorial tablet and head to the restroom,


    Mackenzie couldn’t help but say to Mackenzie, “Go andfort Tia properly.”


    Emmanuel was puzzled for a moment, not understanding his wife’s intention.


    Mackenzie sighed and said, “When Tia married Ryder, wasn’t it partly because of you?


    Now that he has passed away, only you canfort her. If your mother agrees, you should advise her


    to remarry.”


    She always felt that Tia was quite pitiful. At 27 years old, it was impossible for her to live as a widow for


    the rest of her life.


    Emmanuel nodded. In fact, Alessandra had already talked to Tia about it. If she wanted to remarry, they


    would support her.


    “Tia.”


    Just as Tia walked out, she heard Emmanuel’s voice, and her body trembled slightly.


    He walked up to her and said, “Ryder has passed away, and we’re all very sad. However, please


    ept my condolences. The future is still long, so you must n well for yourself.”


    Hearing his words, Tia, who had been strong for several days, finally couldn’t help but cry.


    Emmanuel handed her a tissue.


    However, Tia didn’t take it. With tears streaming down her face, she cried. “I had nned to spend my


    life with him. I didn’t expect him to die so suddenly. Now I don’t know what to do. I really don’t know.”


    Emmanuel nodded, understanding her feelings, and gently wiped the tears from her cheeks with a


    tissue.


    Tia had always liked this man. Finally, she couldn’t help but throw herself into his arms and cry


    unrestrainedly.


    Emmanuel was a bit at a loss for a moment and wanted to push Tia away. It didn’t conform to societal


    morals, especially when his wife was watching.


    However, Mackenzie showed no change in expression and even gestured for him not to push Tia away,


    then quietly left.


    She just felt that Tia was very pitiful. If she wasn’t allowed to cry in the arms of the man she loved, then


    that would be too cruel.


    After crying for quite a while, Tia finally raised her head and took the initiative to leave


    Emmanuel’s embrace. “Emmanuel, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have done that. However, I just can’t find a


    shoulder to cry on.”


    “It’s okay. My shoulder is always avable for you, but I don’t want to see you sad and crying again.”


    Emmanuel’sfort was indeed the best medicine for healing Tia’s soul.


    Tia nodded, wiped away the tears on her cheeks, and forced a smile. “Emmanuel, I understand. I’ll be


    strong. And I’ll raise Tommy well into adulthood.”


    Emmanuel also smiled and nodded.


    It was good that Tia had this idea, but he was afraid that things wouldn’t be so quiet on ke and


    Abellyn’s side.


    Sure enough, just as the two returned to the funeral scene, ke and Abellyn arrived.


    Abellyn looked at Ryder’s memorial photo with a cold expression.


    On the other hand, ke held three sticks of incense, bowing while chuckling, “Ryder, in recognition of


    the six years you’ve raised my child. I’ll offer incense for you and promise to avenge you. Rest assured,


    and journey well.”


    Hearing what ke said, Alessandra couldn’t help it anymore. “Please don’t say such things in front of


    Ryder’s memorial tablet. Tommy is his son and also a member of our Lowe family.”


    ke immediately chuckled and didn’t argue.


    However, Abellyn sneered, “At this point, why say such nonsense? Tommy is just a child born between


    me and ke. What does he have to do with your Lowe family?”
